Product Overview
Originating from tropical Africa, the sapele tree showcases a medium to dark reddish brown interlocked grain that is truly stunning. It is more durable than the other mahoganies it resembles and is almost completely rot and weather resistant. Sapele wood is dramatically stable and thus predictable from the moment it is felled to the time the final product is wrapped. Sapele butcher blocks countertops are the answer to exotic and luxurious taste. Countertops are made of solid wood staves which are finger jointed and edge glued for a classic butcher block look. A variety of species are available so you can pick a color and style that works for your space. The countertops are sold unfinished, giving you freedom to customize your piece. Remember that wood is a product of nature. The allure of a pure wood product is that no two grain patterns, textures or colors are identical. Wood is affected by soil contents, climate, growth patterns and many other factors. These wonderfully unique features will ensure a one of a kind look for your remodel. Differences in grain, coloring or mineral streaking, as it occurred in nature, will not be considered a defect or reason for a replacement. Wood will also change with time, gradually responding to its environment, and aging with beauty.

Beautiful but poor quality control
Received this unfinished Sapele butcher block top in a timely manner, however, upon opening the undamaged box the item was in poor condition.
It was split apart along one seam, gouged and had rough grain in a couple of areas. Pretty disappointing as I had my carpenter on-site ready to immediately install. Luckily my carpenter was able to glue and screw together with braces. He also had to trim off bad spots to make it work. It looks beautiful now that its installed but if I would have had the time, I'd have returned it. I now need another butcher block top for another project but I'm afraid to order from this maker.

Used for standing desk. Be sure and not open package until you are ready to put on the mineral oil.

Solid beautiful butcher block. The rich natural red is stunning but doesn't have that tacky tone fake "cherry" colored furniture has. I coated it with clear satin gel stain. I attached it to hydraulic legs resulting in an awesome desk. It doesn't scratch easily and cleans up easily. Very happy.

After sanding and piling the island of the same wood, we had to go ahead and so the whole kitchen. It was that beautiful! Rich and warm. Can’t stop staring. :)

Actually, Home Depot must have not been able to get the 4' and 6' Sapele counter tops and upgraded me to European Walnut for the same price.
Please beware that you need whatever you are going to use for a sealer ready when you remove the plastic seal because you only have 2 to 4 hours to seal it. This is a great solid product. You won't be disappointed.
Great product I use for a reloading bench and a work bench.

Beautiful, perfect for counter or desktop
Fantastic piece of wood. Use mineral spirits after you've cut it to size to bring out the gorgeous colours in this piece. It is heavy. I'm using it for a desktop in my home office and it is definitely worth the work that you have to put into it.
The edges are squared, so you may want to round them if you're using this for a table.

There is a markedly change in colours once you apply a treatment. Great work on the desk.
Customer review from homedepot.caMar 10, 2020
Beautiful colors
I absolutely love this butcher block counter top on my island, so I do give it a 5 star rating based on the looks and quality of the butcher block. The frustrating part was that it took three orders before I finally received it. The first (and then second) order came in damaged. The third order was shipped to store with no problems. I oiled the counter top with mineral oil as soon as it was installed, and this really brought out the richness and beauty of the red colors.

Using as a desk in home office
I have no experience with finishing wood, but did some research online and decided to sand this smooth up to a 220grit and then wetsand with Tung oil finish for about 7 coats. Wow this thing is really beautiful!
I'm using it for a desktop in my home office and it grabs the attention of the whole room. I can't wait to finish up my project and maybe use these blocks in my kitchen since I have the confidence in using it now.
